DESCRIPTION:

Daylight Savings in Australia’s Southern states commences on the 1st Sunday of October (Spring Forward ) and ends on the 1st Sunday in April (Fall Back).

On this day, we move the clock one hour ahead at 2 AM in October or one hour back in April at 2 AM on Sunday.

The saying, “spring forward, fall back,” is an excellent way to remember. The memory tool works in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.

American Benjamin Franklin was the first to propose daylight savings time (DST) in 1784. Modern DST began in 1895. Throughout history, several variations were adopted, ranging from 30 minutes to two hours.

Not everyone observes DST, which can make setting appointments very challenging. The primary purpose of DST is to make better use of daylight hours for farming, early morning activities (such as children walking to school in the light instead of dark), and saving energy.

The closer one lives to the North and South Pole, the longer the period of daylight in the summer months.
